Answer:

b. Nucleotides

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are examples of structures formed from nucleotides. And in relation to the composition of DNA, we have the formation of the largest cellular macromolecule, all formed by nucleotides.

The nucleotide is a group formed by the association of 3 molecules - a nitrogen base, a phosphate group and a pentose glycide. Thus, we may have variations within these ligands, such as: in DNA we have the presence of pentose deoxyribose, while in RNA we have the presence of pentose ribose.

The nucleotides have differences in relation to its nitrogen base, which can be purine or pyrimidine. Purine bases vary in Adenine and Guanine, while pyrimidine bases are classified in Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine. Purine and pyrimidine bases are complementary and each have specific binders. Thus, we have that the purine base Adenina, binds with the pyrimidine bases Timina and Uracila, while the base Guanina binds exclusively to Cytosine and vice versa.

Well, when a plant or animal dies in a damp environment it will most likely get buried in mud or silt. The tissues over time will decompose and leave bones or shells behind ( depending on what was there originally it can vary) Eventually over time sediment builds up and hardens into rock.

Identical population-splitting events occurred simultaneously on two neighboring islands, Islands B and C, which are each initia

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

This is due to the event of Speciation that happened for the rodents in Island B but not for the rodents in Island C.

Explanation:

Due to splitting of the population,

The sub-population of rodents formed in Island B are B1 and B2.
The sub-population of rodents formed in Island C are C1 and C2.
In case of Island B, each of the B1 and B2 sub-populations that got split from each other developed certain mutations that were necessary for them to adapt to the particular diverse environment each of them were exposed to, through the period of 50,000 years. These mutations were so varied that reproductive isolation was generated between them that resulted in each of them to develop into different species.Hence, speciation happens here and B1 and B2 are incapable of inter-breeding.
In case of Island C, each of the C1 and C2 sub-populations that got split might have got exposed to similar environmental change or no environmental change or the environmental change might have been too small to cause drastic change in each of the sub-populations. As a result of this the two sub-populations might have acquired certain mutations to adapt to the environment each of them were exposed to, through a period of 100,000 years. These mutations might not have been too variable or contrasting to cause reproductive isolation between C1 and C2. Hence, no new speciation happens here and C1 and C2 are capable of inter-breeding.
